If you are Ruby On Rails Developer, RubyMine is great choice of IDE. It provides good integration with rails so that running rake tasks, generators, bundle install all can be done from within the IDE. So using RubyMine it decreases extra time to go to googling syntax for Ruby code and making developer more productive.
My CMS has a small window in which I can edit custom HTML/CSS. It can be expanded some, but not as much as I would like. It also displays all code as dark text on a white background. On a page where I am doing extensive custom coding, it is helpful to see it in a larger window and in a color-coded display so that I don't have to strain my eyes as hard. Especially when I'm trying to scan for specific elements and target issues and so that I don't have to scroll endlessly in a tiny window.
In a world of free and open text editors, Sublime Text does ask for donations. You can use the product freely with only a very infrequent popup asking for donations. You can use it however long you like without paying, but it is well worth it to donate to.
People not used to the functionality may need a bit of time to get up to speed using the documentation.
An integrated terminal would be nice, but that is just a quibble. It's hard to find many cons with Sublime Text.
This is a programmers tool. As such a lot of the features and benefits are lost on a non-technical user. To get the most out of the tool you need to have a basic crash course in how it works and what it can do. The documentation and community are good, but it takes a bit of time to get up to speed.
Never had to use their customer support before. There is ample documentation online so it's straightforward to find a solution to any problem you might encounter. For example, I needed to convert a string of HTML code to a properly formatted HTML file to "modify." Easy to do when there are so many users of the product who have needed to do that same thing before.
RubyMine is specifically for Ruby On Rails so it is more focused and having more syntax autocompletion and other tasks automation with good code debugging skill. So, for particular Ruby On Rails project development it is much more advanced and effective than any other general IDE like Visual studio and Sublime Text.
Sublime is more customizable and one can easily modify a lot of its features. On the contrary Visual Studio only has limited customizability features. Sublime text is also very light and not bloated as opposed to Visual Studio IDE. We also chose sublime because it has much better support for the majority of languages(especially Python) and I primarily work with python.
sometimes it feels slow down system because of using RubyMine as it requires more memory and power.
RubyMine is great choice of any Ruby On Rails Developer as it reduces time of project development by providing lots of inbuilt functionalities like autocompletes syntax running rake task, git integrations and many more
